However, I ran into a problem with dbus.  RHEL 4 ships a pre-release
version (0.22) which isn't compatible with the X server 1.5 source.  For
comparison, RHEL 5 uses a significantly newer version (1.12.)
Unfortunately, however, other system applications are tied to the
ABI-incompatible pre-release, so it isn't a simple matter of upgrading
the RPM.  I'd need to build it from source and then link Xvnc to my
version of it (probably statically.)

Any sage advice?  I'm hoping that maybe there's a magic flag to disable
the dbus requirement or something like that.

There's a configure flag:

$ ./configure --help 2>&1 | grep -i dbus
  --enable-config-dbus    Build D-BUS API support (default: no)

Does this flag help? What's strange is that the help text says it defaults to no, but apparently this isn't the case. In any case, DBUS doesn't seem to be a hard dependency; we don't have it all on our build system.
